Wind turbines operate at a high speed with low torque because it will garner the most efficiency. When the wind turbine operates at a "light breeze", the blades will meet less friction and can therefore use that towards power generation instead. I’m gonna add onto the above answer.

So, a GE 1.5 MW would cost around $ 1.5 million. Installation and development of the site would be additional costs.

Well done and it? looks spectacular! I live in Charlestown and didn’t even notice the project until my wife pointed it out to me. Well done and it? looks spectacular!
